How to award custom badges to your students

Directions for awarding custom badges to your students.

Written by Diana Lay Updated over a week ago

Students love recognition and here at CodeHS we wanted to give teachers a tool for awarding students with custom badges! On CodeHS Pro you can design badges that are perfect for your students and classes.

Here are some examples of what we mean:

So how do you make your own? You may have already noticed a badge icon next to student names on your section roster.

From here, you can click on the icon and you'll be directed to a page where you can "Create a Badge."

Once you click on "Create a Badge," you'll see a pop-out for designing a badge. You can upload an image (square images are best), title the badge, and write a short description so your students know what they're being recognized for.
